Chapter 792 [0780] Comparing Sizes
The destructive power of the ground surge is amazing.
As the unrestrained void energy gushed out from the void cracks and rushed out of the ground, a series of lavender, almost materialized lights rushed into the sky from the cracks on the surface like magma from a volcanic eruption.
At this moment, time and space seemed to become "sticky".
When the lavender light gushed out, many of the coalition forces who were supposed to turn around and flee, who were not firm in their minds, even stopped in a daze and stared blankly at the lavender light curtain that was leaping in the sky like an aurora.
It was so elusive and so charming that these people were completely attracted to it, put down their weapons and opened their arms.
The eyes of these people gradually became blurred.
An unclear whisper appeared in their minds. In a trance, they seemed to see a future in which they became some kind of great existence and achieved unimaginable immortality.
This "future" was so clear that these people believed in its existence almost immediately, and even took the initiative to open their arms and embrace this "great future".
Around them, many companions wanted to stop their suicide behavior, but when these sober people grabbed the arms of their former companions and wanted to help them escape, they were cruelly betrayed.
After touching their companions' arms, these people who were completely attracted by the void seemed to have found some prey, and they entangled each other tightly, wanting to go to the void together.
Until this time, those whose minds had not been infected by the void discovered that their companions' minds were already abnormal. They drooled, and used voices that were not like those of living people to tell the same nonsense as the void; at the same time, they dragged more people to the void.
Those who reacted quickly would cut off the arms of these lunatics in order to get away, while those who reacted a little slower would become victims of the void and become part of the void.
This is the terrifying thing about the ground surge - in addition to the gushing energy, it also has the attribute of mental attack. People with weak minds can easily be attracted by the whispers of the void and become slaves of the void.
And this is not the end.
When the surge ends, the void energy that is as ethereal as the aurora in the sky will enter the materialization stage and turn into a "void rain" and fall back to the ground in the form of void worms.
Although the combat effectiveness of the newly materialized void worms is very average, the pollution effect of the voidization of the environment is first-class. Behind the front line that the coalition forces have finally cleared, there are traces of void creature activities in many places.
Fortunately, this ground surge came and went quickly. After just a few minutes, the surge ended and the sky turned pure blue again, as if it was just an ordinary sun shower.
But on the ground, whether it was the silent semi-chitinous corpse or the seriously injured people groaning in pain, they all proved the horror of the ground surge just now without exception.
Many people were still in shock, and sat down on the ground after the ground surge ended, and couldn't even stand up.
Only those who have truly faced the void can clearly understand the horror of the void - when the lavender light enveloped the world, it was a palpitation that could not be described in words.
In front of the terrible power of the void, even the extraordinary are just weak ants struggling to survive. Rather than saying that the void is a terrible enemy, it is better to say that once the void energy is poured out, it is no different from a natural disaster.
This is the void.
The whispers of the void are not about pure madness, but a possibility of the future.
All those who are swallowed by the void will become part of the void.
There is no time in the void, so after becoming a part of the void, you can indeed obtain "eternal immortality".
However, this eternal immortality may not be what those who embrace the void want to see.
……………………
With the outbreak of a large-scale ground surge, the morale of the coalition forces has been visibly reduced.
Among them, the Ekassia people were not so bad. They were also "bitter and vengeful" people. They knew the horror of the void since childhood. This time, they saw the ground surge and faced the terrible power of the void. It was just "learning from books is shallow", so they were prepared.
But after this battle, the elementalists of Ixutal were like lost souls, and their morale fell to the bottom.
The original axiom that once made them extremely proud and proud was meaningless in the face of such a large-scale natural disaster. Even the great elementalists who had embarked on the path of transcendence were not much different from mortals in the face of large-scale ground surges. They had no way to protect themselves and were sprayed by the ground surges. There was no trace of their bodies.
The only thing that proved that they were stronger than ordinary mortals was that their bodies were a little less chitinized, that's all.
Because this wave of ground surges lasted for a very short time, the damage caused was not actually too great, but sometimes, the damage was not only reflected in the harvest of life, but also the damage to the mind.
However, even in the midst of all the wailing, Qiyana showed amazing calmness and rationality.
"Come on, warriors of Ixtal!" Just when the ground surge stopped and the elementalists of Ixtal were at a loss, her voice echoed on the battlefield immediately, "The void has no way to deal with us, this is its last fig leaf!"
No one responded to her, even the great elementalists were still in a daze.
"We are getting closer and closer to the rift. Now the ground is erupting, which means that the void is afraid of our advance!"
"This is a choice without choice, a solution without solution, and a desperate struggle when there is no room for resistance!"
"In the past, in Icathia, facing the army of the empire, the void rift once had a ground eruption that lasted more than three days."
"Here, the ground eruption only lasted a few minutes. I don't believe that the vicious void doesn't want to erupt for three days and three nights like in Icathia."
"There is only one reason why the ground eruption ended so quickly, that is, it no longer has the terrible power it once had!"
"The ground eruption is terrible, but it is this ground eruption that exposes its weakness."
"We are taking advantage of this weak opportunity to completely close this gap."
"Otherwise, one day, this rift will get bigger and bigger until it Expand the range of the void surge to a farther place, even to Ixtal."
"For Ixtal, we must seize this precious period of weakness and destroy the void rift itself in one go!"
"Elementalists of Ixtal, students of Nezuk!"
"The great Nezuk once drove the Monolith Fortress to bridge the void rift that spanned a hundred miles."
"And today, we will be like Nezuk, using the power of elements to face the void and defeat this shameful and corrupt power head-on."
"Don't be afraid, don't worry."
"Three thousand years ago, Ixtal was built on the corpse of the void; and now, Ixtal will try its hand at this rift and embark on the road to revival here!"
"..."
"..."
Qiana is not a very good speaker-in terms of inspiring people, she is far behind Lux.
However, she was able to react quickly at this time, and immediately came up with a reason that sounded completely reasonable to boost morale, and used history as an example to use Nezuk to inspire the frustrated Ixtal elementalists. Her performance can be considered excellent.
At least... compared with the former elemental king who was deprived of his bloodline, Kalya liked her very much.
And it was because of Qiyana's encouragement that the emotions of Ixtal elementalists gradually recovered.
After getting rid of their fear, they realized that the destructive power of this earth surge... seemed to be really just that.
More than a hundred elementalists were transformed into void chitin. Although it looked terrible, the casualties of this level could only be said to be nothing.
As for the void worms that fell like raindrops, they were more like toads falling on the soles of your feet - they would not bite people, but would only disgust people.
Void worms of this level had no decent combat power at all, and the trouble they could cause was not much different from a group of rats. At most, it would take some effort to clean them up.
If you think about it this way, it seems that an earth surge... is just that?
After realizing this, the morale of the elementalists finally improved a little. Although it was not as high as before, at least they would not lose control because of fear.
In this case, the original battle plan does not need to be changed much and can continue to be implemented.
The plan to pump water from the lake can still be implemented, and the battle line can still move forward!
……………………
The elementalists of Ixtal gradually calmed down, and the original battle plan could continue to be implemented. This is a good thing for the coalition, but Malzahar, who observed this, gnashed his teeth with hatred.
He was really angry-why did the Tenth Princess Qiyana lead the troops? !
In Malzahar's view, if the Elemental King led the troops this time, the earth surge would be enough to shake the elementalists; and if the eldest princess led the troops, the earth surge would cause the team to collapse.
The person in charge was Qiyana, the only reliable person in the royal family of Ixtal.
What bad luck!
Malzahar obviously didn't know what happened to Ixtal, nor did he know that the throne of the Elemental King had changed hands and fell on the head of Qiyana, who originally had no right to inherit.
"Fortunately, the Son of Terror was summoned long ago."
The earth surge just now had average lethality, but it produced a large amount of semi-voided chitin.
And these chitins have always been the favorite food of the Void Terror. As long as they are completely swallowed, these hideous giant void creatures will become taller and more powerful.
As long as their height reaches fifty feet, those annoying deformed puppets will lose their current role as a stabilizing force!
However, there is a small problem. The void chitin transformed by the void energy is now under the control of the coalition forces, and if they can be seen, the coalition forces will render them harmless.
Therefore, Malzahar must get these void chitins as soon as possible and feed them to the Void Terror!
In other words, Malzahar must launch a counterattack immediately!
Although he felt sorry for the void worms he had carefully cultivated, Malzahar still issued a counterattack order as soon as possible. Countless void worms screamed and rushed to the battlefield, and began to attack the coalition positions one after another, risking their lives.
Unfortunately, this counterattack was somewhat a bit of thunder and rain. Although the scale of the void worms was large, the overwhelming swarm of worms seemed to annihilate everything and completely engulf the coalition, but when they arrived in front of the coalition's defense line, the trouble these worms could really cause was not too big.
Even though many void worms had the talent of "anti-primitive axiom", ordinary spells had limited lethality to them, but these worms could only be regarded as cannon fodder, and their combat capability in frontal combat was still a bit poor.
That is, the numerical advantage and the long front line caused some trouble to the coalition at the beginning. When they began to actively shrink the front line and put all their strength on defense, even if there were more void worms, it would be difficult to cause any damage.
On the contrary, the morale of the coalition was boosted again because of this battle that was more like a tower defense battle.
The void is just like this, just like Her Majesty Qiyana said, they are just a trapped beast fighting!
In this way, when the army of the void worms began to lose strength, the coalition quickly regained the lost position and even completed the counterattack, further pressing the front line to the void rift.
The only pity is that during the period of losing the position, the bodies of the dead were eaten by the worms, and they could only build a tomb for them after returning to Ixtal.
……………………
Facts have proved that this ground surge does have some meaning of a last gasp, because after that, until the coalition line arrived at a place only a few hundred yards away from the rift, they did not encounter any decent attacks.
After causing huge casualties to the void worms, their ability to resist is gradually weakening, and it seems that they will soon follow the footsteps of the void flying worms.
Even Karya couldn't figure out what chance Malzahar had to turn the tables at this time - unless he had mastered a way to directly detonate the void rift, his failure was inevitable at this time.
Next, all they had to do was to gather all the Malphites, open up a stable channel to the void rift, and then gather all the extraordinary people, with the help of Jilan, to seal the rift with Karya, and the battle would be completely over.
No void worms could stop Malphites. Any attack from these worms, which were at most the size of a calf, could only tickle the Malphites!
With this idea in mind, Karya began to prepare the final sealing battle plan.
However, just as the Malphites began to open up the road to the rift under his command, these stone men who had been invincible all the way in the past encountered a tough opponent for the first time.
Just as they were about to occupy the largest exit of the hernia and gain unilateral control of the void rift, five giant void worms twice the size of Malphites emerged from the hernia rift.
Malzahar himself stood on the head of the largest void worm, smiling at the stunned coalition.
Comparing size, eh?
Do you like this surprise from the void?
Karya's small class: Void and Reality:
Organic matter is energy in the void, and matter in the Rune Land.
